Abstract
A system controls the audio focus for a user in a virtual conference call. The system retrieves sound parameters associated with participants in the virtual conference call with the user from a user profile of the user. The sound parameters define volume adjustments to be applied to audio data received from the participants for generating an audio mix customized to the user. The system receives the audio data from client devices of the participants, and for each of the participants, adjusts the audio data of the participant using the associated sound parameter of the participant. The system adds the adjusted audio data of the participants to the audio mix for the user and provides the audio mix to a client device of the user.
